Re: [RBW] Re: WTB: matching trunksacks (was: New look on Quickbeam)
Hi Geoff, would love to take it offline, but I can't figure how to send you a g-mail. I think mine links in the quoted text - do you want to try me? I don't think an iPad would quite fit in the large trunksack.

Re: [RBW] Re: WTB: matching trunksacks (was: New look on Quickbeam)
Ron, Those look really nice with the liners! Good work. Two questions: how much would you ask for the set, shipped to Denver; and, how well would an iPad fit in the larger sack, with the liner installed?
